As part of our commitment to growing the game and making the best environment for our players to develop, grow and improve, we've helped establish and create a new league in our state that is made up of other like minded and quality clubs.
We're excited to be a part of the new Club Development League (CDL) in Iowa! The CDL is a competitive state-wide player development league for 13U – 19U players. The league is by membership only, based upon satisfying league club standards that will continue to elevate the soccer landscape for years to come.
"Sporting Iowa East was created to better serve the developmental and competitive needs of players in the Quad Cities area and we're delighted to take another giant step forward in growing the game through our partnership in The Club Development League (CDL) with other, professionally organised clubs whose goals and missions align with our own model of player/coach development, growth and improvement. The league is governed, organized and administered by the clubs and provides an incredible platform to strengthen the game and more importantly our players experience through better schedules, more meaningful games and a much healthier sideline culture from all involved, through the implementation of club standards. The CDL is committed to the growth of the game and as such, we are committed to the League and our partner clubs”.
